I had a laptop at my previous job, now a desktop. If you have to do a demo in a different room, it's a pain. Your best bet is usually to use another laptop.

Same thing if you want to have a call in a quiet place and want to check emails/reference during the call. Work from home is also easier, you don't have to use 2 computers or carry your tower (though currently that's viable).
